Kenny Gabriel and Tessitori combined for all the points in a 0-7 run that gave Brescia an early 7-11 lead. Tessitori got help from Allerik Freeman and Derek Willis to boost the visitors' margin to 13-21 after 10 minutes. Willis kept pushing Reyer and Riccardo Moraschini's fastbreak layup prompted Brescia call timeout, 13-29, after a 2-16 run. Freeman's buzzer-beating three-pointer fixed the halftime score at 24-46.
Little changed after the break, as Reyer boosted its margin to 24-52 on a three-pointer by Freeman, kept a 38-64 lead at the end of the third quarter and did not find much trouble to seal the outcome long before the final buzzer.
